Psalms 10
1 Why, Yahweh, do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
Munomirireiko kure, imi Jehovha? Munozvivanzireiko panguva yokutambudzika?
2 Because of their arrogance, wicked people chase the oppressed; but please let the wicked be trapped by their own schemes that they have devised.
Pakuzvikudza kwake munhu akaipa anovhima vasina simba, vanobatwa namano okufunga kwake.
3 For the wicked person boasts of his deepest desires; he blesses the greedy and insults Yahweh.
Anozvirumbidza pamusoro pezvinopangwa nomwoyo wake; anoropafadza vanokara uye anozvidza Jehovha.
4 The wicked man has a raised face; he does not seek God. He never thinks about God because he does not care at all about him.
Pakuzvikudza kwake akaipa haamutsvaki; mundangariro dzake dzose hamuna nzvimbo yaMwari.
5 He is secure at all times, but your righteous decrees are too high for him; he snorts at all his enemies.
Nzira dzake dzinobudirira nguva dzose; anozvikudza uye mirayiro yenyu iri kure naye; anodadira vavengi vake vose.
6 He says in his heart,” I will never fail; throughout all generations I will not meet adversity.”
Anoti pakufunga kwake, “Hakuna chichandizungunusa; ndichagara ndakafara uye handingatongotambudziki.”
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceptive, harmful words; his tongue injures and destroys.
Muromo wake uzere nokutuka, kureva nhema, uye nokutyisidzira; matambudziko nezvakaipa zviri pasi porurimi rwake.
8 He waits in ambush near the villages; in the secret places he murders the innocent; his eyes look for some helpless victim.
Anovandira ari pedyo nemisha; pakuvandira uku anouraya vasina mhosva, ari panzvimbo yakavanzika anotarira vaachaparadza.
9 He lurks in secret like a lion in the thicket; he lies in wait to catch the oppressed. He catches the oppressed when he pulls in his net.
Anovandira seshumba iri panzvimbo yayo; anovandira kuti abate vasina anovabatsira; anobata vasina anobatsira uye anovakweva achienda navo mumumbure wake.
10 His victims are crushed and beaten down; they fall into his strong nets.
Vabatwa vake anovapwanya, vanowa; vanowira pasi pesimba rake.
11 He says in his heart, “God has forgotten; he covers his face; he will not bother to look.”
Anoti mumwoyo make, “Mwari akanganwa; akafukidza chiso chake uye haazoonizve.”
12 Arise, Yahweh! Lift up your hand, God! Do not forget the oppressed.
Simukai, imi Jehovha! Simudzai ruoko rwenyu, imi Mwari. Regai kukanganwa vanomanikidzwa.
13 Why does the wicked man reject God and say in his heart, “You will not hold me accountable”?
Munhu akaipa anozvidzireiko Mwari? Seiko achiti mumwoyo make, “Haazondibvunzi?”
14 You have taken notice, for you always see the one who inflicts the misery and sorrow. The helpless entrusts himself to you; you rescue the fatherless.
Asi imi, iyemi Mwari, munoona kutambudzika nokusuwa; munokutarisisa kuti mukupedze. Asina simba anozviisa kwamuri; muri mubatsiri wenherera.
15 Break the arm of the wicked and evil man. Make him account for his evil deeds, which he thought you would not discover.
Vhunai ruoko rweakaipa nerwomunhu akaipa; ngaazvidavirire pazvakaipa zvake zvakanga zvisingazoonekwi.
16 Yahweh is King forever and ever; the nations are driven out of his land.
Jehovha ndiye Mambo nokusingaperi-peri; ndudzi dzichaparara munyika yake.
17 Yahweh, you have heard the needs of the oppressed; you strengthen their heart, you listen to their prayer;
Munonzwa henyu, imi Jehovha, zvishuvo zvavanotambura; munovakurudzira, uye munoteerera kuchema kwavo,
18 You defend the fatherless and the oppressed so that no man on the earth will cause terror again.
muchiruramisira nherera nevakamanikidzwa, kuti munhu wenyika, arege kuramba achingovhundutsa.
